ROMAN'S POV

Getting my thoughts aligned, I wasted no moment to look for her as soon as I arrived at the office.

"I need to check the floor upstairs."

"I need to see for myself how the progress is coming."

"How team members are there in the Seraph wing?"

"Should the consultant give me a report soon?"

I'd come up with all sorts of excuses. Anything at this point, anything to get me close to her. Get me alone with her, but Jordan. Fucking cock blocking Jordan, he insisted it was too risky.

  • CHOKEHOLD; Trapped By My Ex    Chapter 164

    ALINA'S POV Every bit of the time we spent together, moving from place to place. Eventually out of the shopping mall, to another not too far away. More striking things catching my eyes. I believe we went from Designer fashion boutiques to Shoe boutiques, Leather goods, Fine jewellery boutique, Beauty and fragrance, even Luxury lingerie boutiques as well! It was a whole wardrobe change! A full blown change and I couldn't stop smiling. Especially seeing the shopping bags get loaded after we were done with each building. Ro, had everything all arranged. All bags would be delivered to straight to the villa. We didn't have to lift a thing. I didn't have to do a thing other than pick what I liked. "Thank you," I whispered to him again after another loading. Appreciating him with kisses, arms around his neck. And he welcomed it. Holding me close as we stood, tucking a few strands of my hair behind. "Are you tired?" "Well I am but... I'm not? You know that type of thing?" I chu

    ALINA'S POV Last time I let this man take me shopping, I cautioned myself for not asking the extent of it.First I had things picked out for me, endless shopping bags on my arms, turning them raw by the time I got home with them all alone. I shouldn't let him take me a second time, should I?Anyways all it's all useless.We were here already. Standing on the floors of a brightly lit, shiny as hell shopping mall. Luxury no doubt, with spiral stairs coming from the ground up to high into the building. Several levels of stores around. Utterly beautiful.Bellamy, the words read outside. The name of the place. Very suiting if you ask me."Good day, Ma'am, sir." An attendant approached as we walked in, smiled politely. Female. "How can I help you? Are you looking for anything specific?" She turned to me, I turned to the one at my side."We're here for her," he simply said, "Show us around." The lady beamed at his words, eagerly leading us forward to the massive spread by our left. Severa

    ALINA'S POV I woke up the next day with a stir. Sounds of water rushing, air smelling nice, clean. Sheets cradling me like heavenly gloves. Definitely not my apartment or bed.I got up quick. Panic first, then relaxing as I took in my environment. My brain booting, remembering; Dinner with Cleo, Jordan, airport, villa. Roman. That bastard Roman, my phone! "I'll just get you a new one. Jordan forgot to hand it over after arriving at the airport with you." His voice floated in my head. Excuses. Whether or not it was true, I had no way of finding out. Jordan wasn't like the type to forget his job. He had everything all booked and arranged, but forgot a phone? To hand it back??Pfft.I wasn't born yesterday.Anyways everything came flooding back after that. Our dinner together, me tired, going to bed, and then now. Now waking up to and in the most comforting sheets ever created, so soft. "So good," I purred, sinking more into it. Enjoying as it enveloped me.For a minute there I forgot

    ALINA'S POV"What?" He looked at me, finally put his iPad away. Rising up to meet me. "What is it? Why you acting surprised and-"Because I am surprised." I cut him off, watching as reached in front of me. His smooth all black outfit and casual home shoes contrasting my fur jacket and flimsy nighties underneath. "I was sleeping.""Sleeping? That's not what I heard." I rolled my eyes, "Okay fine, I wasn't sleeping. But I'd planned to. With Cleo.""And now you'll sleep with me." He murmured, pulled me close, smirking. Cheesy. "Missed me?"I tried not to roll my eyes again, maintaining the seriousness of this situation. "Say you didn't miss me. C'mon, say it.""Roman,""Say it,""Stop," I put my hand on his chest, my voice not as serious as I'd like. "This is serious okay? It isn't okay. You flew me across an ocean in the middle of the night, lying with your assistant that I was getting a surprise.""And you have." He announced, arms weak around me. Arrogant. "This is the surprise. I a

    ALINA'S POV Ask boss?Roman."Oh you Roman... I'll kill you, you bastard."I'll freaking kill you if anything happens to me!The jet took off in no time. Lifting me off the ground, the sounds, noise and everything adding to it. Adding to my apprehension. Jordan stood there though. At the far corner. Watching and squinting in that black suit until I could see him no more. At least that gave me comfort.I wasn't getting kidnapped.This was all some elaborate arrangement related to that bastard. Up in the sky, I finally looked around me. The people with me. All male. Not a word said to me, not a glance. As though minding their business or maybe they didn't even dare to do so.So I couldn't ask anything. Where we were going or what the plan was. Eventually I learned to look outside the window, take in the surroundings below. The city, the lights, the night sky. It calmed me a bit. Relaxed me to the point I didn't know how long it was. All I knew it wasn't brief, and it wasn't that long

    ALINA'S POV "Jordan," I called, surprised from where I sat. Eyebrows creased. "What are you doing here?"Cleo gave way, he stepped in, shut the elevator. Gaze firm and neutral as usual, but I knew he had reservations. Just didn't say it."Ma'am," he addressed, "I'm here to pick you up.""Pick me up. Pick me up to where?" I rose, setting my glass down. Cleo quickly walked beside me, held my hand. "What is this exactly? Is It that bitch throwing weight around? She knows??""Knows what? She doesn't." I immediately refuted, facing Jordan. "What is going on? You've never come in here before, where do you want to take me to?""I can't disclose. Boss's orders." He stated, "Boss's??" Cleo and I looked at each other, "Why is your boss sending you to a woman's apartment at night, her apartment." She gestured at me, protective. But Jordan already looked impatient, not wanting to answer anymore questions."The boss has something arranged, asked me to bring her to it. We have to leave now.""N
